Michelle Dockery Switches It Up for HBO's Emmys After Party

Michelle Dockery dons a flashy black dress while attending HBO’s After Party following the 2013 Emmy Awards on Sunday evening (September 22) at the The Plaza at the Pacific Design Center in Los Angeles.

Earlier in the day, the 31-year-old English actress sported a classy red gown while walking the red carpet at the award ceremony, where she was nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her role in Downton Abbey.

“The thing is, we all had that choice, and any one of us could have left. There was a point where I thought, Yeah, I’m done after three, because that’s what I was expecting to happen: I would do three series and that would be it. And then of course the success of the show was huge and I had my doubts. I discovered there isn’t any rush. I wasn’t ready to finish whereas Dan was very ready to leave. But Dan has done some great work in the space of time since he’s left. He’s already got three films he’s doing, so for him it was the right decision,” Michelle recently told Vulture about her co-star Dan Stevens, who exited Downton Abbey.
